Who Wins

  • You lose pre-6 to her range and poke but have strong level 2-3 all-in windows with W-E if she steps up.
  • Post-6 your kill pressure increases significantly as R can knock her away from safety and set up guaranteed follow-up damage.

How to Trade

  • Look for short E-W-Q trades when she uses abilities on minions, then immediately back off to avoid extended poke.
  • Your best trades come from flanking angles or when she's pushed up without vision of jungle ganks.

Wave Control

  • Let her push early and focus on farming safely, then look to freeze the wave near your tower where she can't safely poke.
  • Use your mobility to roam and impact other lanes rather than forcing unfavorable trades mid.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't chase through minion waves early game as her E slow and Q root will kite you to death.
  • Avoid using E aggressively without flash up since it's your only gap closer and she can easily punish overextensions with her range advantage.
